OCALA, Florida (CNN) -- Actor Wesley Snipes was sentenced Thursday to three years in prison for three misdemeanor counts of failing to file tax returns -- the maximum requested by federal prosecutors.
Wesley's problems with the IRS date back to 2006 when he was charged with attempting to avoid paying taxes and filing $12 million worth of false returns dating all the way back to 1996. Between 1996 and 2004, Snipes earned $37.9 million from his acting career and apparently failed to pay any taxes during that entire time. He also used forged documents to receive $12 million worth of refunds reflecting his income between 1996 and 1998. Wesley's defense was that he was misled by a group of accountants. In addition to his prison sentence, Wesley was required to pay $17 million in back taxes, interest and penalties to the IRS. A co-defendant was sentenced to 10 years in prison and another was sentenced to 4 years. How Wesley Snipes Went From Passenger 57 To Prisoner #43355-018. John Leguizamo Net Worth.
